1. Overview of Management Results and Related Matters

(1) Overview of Management Results for the Term Under Review 1) Performance Overview During this consolidated accounting year (February 1, 2017 to January 31, 2018), Japan’s economy continued to recover at a gradual pace as a whole, thanks to an increase in corporate earnings and enhancement in the employment environment. In the global economy, in addition to the European and U.S. economies continuing to recover at a gradual pace, the Chinese economy also picked up steadily. On the other hand, a latent sense of uncertainty remained due to geopolitical risks, etc. Amid such economic circumstances, the Group developed the sixth medium-term business plan (for the period between the fiscal year ending January 2018 and the fiscal year ending January 2020), under the slogan of “Building our dreams into the future – by creating a bridge towards the Global Number One manufacturer of baby products –,” and has made efforts toward our further growth in the first year of this plan. In addition, we have set the following three basic strategies that would help us to expand the Group's business and improve its management quality.

1) Based on the Pigeon Way, create and implement all kinds of measures to achieve the goal of becoming ‘an indispensable company’ for the society and make our Vision “to be the baby product manufacturer most trusted by the world’s babies and families, i.e. ‘Global Number One’” come true.

2) A further increase in corporate value will be pursued through improvement in profitability and efficiency of the business, and maximization of cash flows. The organizational structure, management system and governance system will also be put in place and reinforced to ensure sustainable growth from a medium to long-term perspective.

3) During the three years of the sixth medium-term business plan, invest management resources giving priority to the key products and carry out strategic investments, laying solid foundations for the double-digit growth of Pigeon Group in the future.

During the consolidated period under review, we implemented strategies for each of our business and function on the basis of the above business policies. As the result, net sales amounted to ¥102,563 million (up 8.4% YOY), as supported by sales increases mainly in Japan and China. Regarding earnings, operating income rose to ¥19,412 million (up 21.2% YOY) thanks to a reduction of approximately 2.1 percentage points in the sales cost ratio from the previous term. Ordinary income recorded ¥20,129 million (up 22.3% YOY), and net income attributable to owners of parent also increased to ¥14,515 million (up 30.5% YOY). The main exchange rates used in the preparation of this consolidated period’s financial statements for the Company’s overseas consolidated subsidiaries (revenues and expenses) are as follows: ・1US$: 112.16 yen (108.77 yen) ・1 CNY: 16.62 yen (16.35 yen) Note: Figures in parentheses represent the exchange rate in the same period of the previous fiscal year. 2) Segment Review Our Group has a total of five reporting segments identified as: “Domestic Baby & Mother Care Business,” “Child Care Service Business,” “Health & Elder Care Business,” “Overseas Business,” and “China Business.” Each segment is outlined below. Please take note that in order to explain the profit status of each segment in a more detailed manner, we decided to record expenses in non-allocable operating expenses associated with the Research and Development Department, which had been included in the Adjustment section so far, in the segment profit of each reporting segment starting from the consolidated fiscal year under review.

In addition, we have made year-over-year comparisons by converting the figures in the same period of the last year into the figures calculated in accordance with the new calculation method after the above revision. Domestic Baby & Mother Care Business Net sales of the segment amounted to ¥33,841 million (up 6.3% YOY). Segment profit increased to ¥5,928 million (up 23.0% YOY). Inbound demand continued to grow, driven by rising numbers of visitors to Japan. Responding to this demand, in February the Group launched its first hand-made ice cream product, “Baby Petit Ice.” In June the Group launched the new version of “Runfee,” single-tire baby stroller series that has earned high customer satisfaction. Later that summer, in August Pigeon launched “Bonyu Pad Fit Up® Saratto Chokyushu,” a breast pad with improved absorbency and leak resistance. In December Pigeon launched “Bonyu Jikkan® Nursing Bottle My Precious,” which won the Good Design Award for FY2017 and has enjoyed steadily rising sales and market share since then. In baby strollers as well, a key category for Pigeon, the Group’s market share continued to grow briskly. Moreover, during this fiscal year, we have held a number of events planned as a part of our direct communications program such as our “Premama Class” for women expecting to give birth in the near future and a seminar about breastfeeding while parenting for health care professionals, organized 32 times. A total of approximately 3,000 people have participated. On "Pigeon Info," a website that supports women during pregnancy, in childbirth, and in raising children, we are continuing to improve the in content so that users can use the site in a more convenient manner. Child Care Service Business Net sales of the segment amounted to ¥7,541 million (up 2.0% YOY). Segment profit increased to ¥218 million (up 3.6% YOY). During the consolidated fiscal year under review, we have launched four in-company child-care facilities, which we are currently operating while striving to improve the service quality. Health & Elder Care Business Net sales of the segment amounted to ¥7,058 million (up 2.3% YOY). Segment profit increased to ¥468 million (up 5.0% YOY). We will continue to focus on further strengthening our sales activities toward retail stores and nursing care facilities, and will ensure that the quality of our nursing care services is improved. Overseas Business Net sales of the segment amounted to ¥25,427 million (up 10.3% YOY). Segment profit also increased to ¥5,841 million (up 20.1% YOY), thanks to the improvement of gross profit margin, as well as effective use of selling, general and administrative expenses. In North America and Europe, where we operate mainly through Lansinoh Laboratories, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary, sales of breastfeeding-related products grew at a spritely pace. These products include flagship products such as nipple care cream, breast pumps and milk bags. Sales in North America expanded through a new sales route, DME Channel, while sales in China continued their trend of solid growth through Lansinoh Laboratories Shanghai, an initiative of the previous year. In India, a key market for the Group, Pigeon enjoyed growth in both sales and earnings, thanks to hard work on initiatives to expand distribution outlets. The Group will continue to make efforts to develop operations through activities on a wide range of fronts. China Business Net sales in this segment increased to ¥34,494 million (up 13.0% YOY), because sales of core products such as nursing bottles and nipples and skincare products remained strong. Segment profit increased to ¥9,716 million (up 16.3% YOY). In May we launched a line of nursing bottles, cups, pacifiers and other baby products decorated

with Disney characters, which enjoyed robust growth. In addition, we will continue to strengthen our activities in the E-commerce market and sales focused on its flagship store, both of which are expected to grow further in the future; we will utilize social networking services further for the invigoration of direct communication with consumers, and will also continue to reinforce sales promotions at stores as well as offline sales activities aimed at hospitals and maternity clinics, in order to increase contact points with customers and expand our operations. Other Businesses Net sales of the segment amounted to ¥1,289 million (up 1.3% YOY), while the segment profit decreased to ¥126 million (down 22.2% YOY). (2) Overview of Financial Position for the Term Under Review 1) Assets As of January 31, 2018, total assets amounted to ¥84,467 million, up ¥5,578 million from the previous consolidated fiscal year ended January 31, 2017. Current assets had an increase of ¥2,933 million, and fixed assets had an increase of ¥2,644 million. Current assets increased mainly due to increases in cash and deposits of ¥1,294 million and in merchandise and finished goods of ¥731 million. Fixed assets increased mainly due to increases in goodwill of ¥1,219 million and in software in progress of ¥1,001 million. 2) Liabilities As of January 31, 2018, total liabilities amounted to ¥21,655 million, down ¥3,497 million from the previous consolidated fiscal year ended January 31, 2017. Current liabilities had a decrease of ¥3,708 million, while fixed liabilities had an increase of ¥211 million. Current liabilities decreased mainly due to a decrease in current portion of long-term loans payable of ¥5,000 million, despite an increase in accounts payable of ¥664 million. Fixed liabilities increased mainly due to increases in deferred tax liabilities of ¥249 million and in net defined benefit liability of ¥159 million, despite a decrease in provision for special extra retirement payments of ¥208 million. 3) Net Assets As of January 31, 2018, total net assets amounted to ¥62,812 million, up ¥9,075 million from the previous consolidated fiscal year ended January 31, 2017. This increase resulted mainly from increases in retained earnings of ¥7,449 million and in foreign currency translation adjustment of ¥861 million. 4) Cash Flows As of January 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter referred to as “net cash”) amounted to ¥31,346 million, up ¥1,294 million from a year earlier. Cash Flows from Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to ¥17,094 million, up from ¥14,810 million of the previous year. This increase is mainly due to ¥20,916 million in income before income taxes and ¥2,444 million in depreciation. Contrasting factors included a ¥761 million increase in inventories and ¥5,868 million in income taxes paid. Cash Flows from Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities totaled ¥3,586 million, up from ¥1,854 million of the previous year. This is mainly due to ¥2,199 million in purchases of tangible fixed assets and ¥1,055 million in purchase of intangible assets. Cash Flows from Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities was ¥12,812 million, up from ¥6,223 million of the previous

year. This decrease is mainly due to ¥5,000 million in repayments of long-term loans payable and ¥7,066 million in payment of cash dividends. (3) Overview of Cash Flows for the Term Under Review Cash flow indicators of the Group are shown below.

(4) Future Directions The group deploys operation to fulfill its mission to bring joy, happiness and inspiration to babies and families around the world by providing them with products and services that embody its corporate philosophy “love.” Guided by this commitment, the Group has set in its medium to long-term corporate vision “to be the baby product manufacturer most trusted by the world’s babies and families i.e. “Global Number One.” For the Sixth Medium-Term Business Plan (for the period between the fiscal year ending January 2018 and the fiscal year ending January 2020), the Group has adopted the slogan, “Building our dreams into the future – by creating a bridge towards the Global Number One manufacturer of baby products –.” This medium-term business plan incorporates three basic strategies as follow, to guide the Group's efforts to expand its business and improve its management quality.

1) Based on the Pigeon Way, create and implement all kinds of measures to achieve the goal of becoming ‘an indispensable company’ for the society and make our Vision “to be the baby product manufacturer most trusted by the world’s babies and families, i.e. ‘Global Number One’” come true.

2) A further increase in corporate value will be pursued through improvement in profitability and efficiency of the business, and maximization of cash flows. The organizational structure, management system and governance system will also be put in place and reinforced to ensure sustainable growth from a medium to long-term perspective.

3) During the three years of the sixth medium-term business plan, invest management resources giving priority to the key products and carry out strategic investments, laying solid foundations for the double-digit growth of Pigeon Group in the future.

(5) Income Appropriation Policy and Dividends for the Term Under Review and Next Term The Pigeon Group regards the return of income to shareholders as an important management priority. Our policy is to actively return income to shareholders through appropriation of retained earnings and other means, while reinforcing our financial position based on considerations of medium-term changes in business conditions and the Group’s business strategies. In addition to strengthening our financial position, we effectively use retained earnings in a number of ways to fortify our operational base and improve future Group earnings. These include investing in new businesses for further growth and research and development, as well as investing in production

facilities to raise production capacity, reduce costs, and enhance product quality. With respect to targets of shareholder return, under the Sixth Medium-Term Business Plan announced in March 2017, we aim to increase dividends every fiscal year compared to previous year. We are also targeting a consolidated total shareholder return of 55%. To this end, we have sought to further strengthen and upgrade measures for returning profits to all shareholders. The distribution of dividends in the period under review reflects the above policies and targets. The Group distributed an interim dividend of ¥31 per share (ordinary dividend of ¥31). For the year-end dividend, the Group forecasts a dividend of ¥35 per share (ordinary dividend of ¥35). This amount is ¥4 higher than the dividend forecast of ¥31 announced on September 4, 2017, due to better-than-expected operating results. As a result, the annual dividend for the term under review will total ¥66 per share (ordinary dividend of ¥66), a per share increase by ¥13 from the previous year. 2. Management Policies

(1) Basic Policies The group deploys operation to fulfill its mission to bring joy, happiness and inspiration to babies and families around the world by providing them with products and services that embody its corporate philosophy “love.” Guided by this commitment, the Group has set in its medium to long-term corporate vision “to be the baby product manufacturer most trusted by the world’s babies and families i.e. “Global Number One.” (2) Performance Targets For the "Sixth Medium-Term Business Plan (for the period between fiscal year ending January 2018 and fiscal year ending January 2020)," our Group has put up the following slogan, "Building our dreams into the future – by creating a bridge towards the Global Number One manufacturer of baby products –." By steadily implementing a range of measures in line with the medium term goals stated in the following section, the level of achievements aimed at for the term ending January, 2020, which is the last fiscal year of the Plan, is net sales of ¥110 billion, operating income of ¥20 billion, and net income attributable to owners of parent of ¥13,800 million. Moreover, in order to ensure yet further improvement of profitability and efficiency of capital, the Group shall deem PVA (Pigeon Value Added), return on invested capital (ROIC), etc. as important management indices, and strive to improve each of them even more. (3) Medium-Term Management Strategies For the "Sixth Medium-Term Business Plan (for the period between fiscal year ending January 2018 and fiscal year ending January 2020)," we have set the following three basic strategies that shall help us to expand the Group's business and improve its management quality.

1) Based on the Pigeon Way, create and implement all kinds of measures to achieve the goal of becoming ‘an indispensable company’ for the society and make our Vision “to be the baby product manufacturer most trusted by the world’s babies and families, i.e. ‘Global Number One’” come true.

2) A further increase in corporate value will be pursued through improvement in profitability and efficiency of the business, and maximization of cash flows. The organizational structure, management system and governance system will also be put in place and reinforced to ensure sustainable growth from a medium to long-term perspective.

3) During the three years of the sixth medium-term business plan, invest management resources giving priority to the key products and carry out strategic investments, laying solid foundations for the double-digit growth of Pigeon Group in the future.

(4) Issues to Address The Group expects uncertainty to linger in the economic environment in which it operates, due to concerns over the slowdown in business growth of China and uncertainties in the global economy centering on Europe and the U.S., but at the same time, consumption trends in China and Japan are quite steady and there is also much to be expected from economic growth of Asian countries and other newly emerging countries around the world. Amid such circumstances, during the "Sixth Medium-Term Business Plan (for the period between fiscal year ending January 2018 and fiscal year ending January 2020)," the Group shall steadily implement a range of measures prescribed in the newly established "Strategy for Important Categories" and individual strategies of each segment. In particular, the Group is focusing on China and Overseas operations, which are positioned as a continuing growth field. In this arena the Group will expand and deepen its presence in existing markets, most notably in China and North America. In addition, we shall select a number of overseas markets of importance to us already, or those we want to expand our presence in in the future, and make strong efforts to establish firm business foundations in such areas in Asia, Africa, etc., which can play important roles for the future growth of the Group. Further, with respect to the Group’s Business Continuity Plan, we will further enhance the global risk management structure that has already been put in place. Moreover, in order to further enhance the soundness and transparency of management going forward, a through enforcement of internal control systems, including the compliance organization will be made for fortifying corporate governance. 3. Basic Approach for the Selection of Accounting Standards The consolidated financial statements of our Group are prepared based on Japanese standards. In the future, we will have to prepare these statements based on the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for the purpose of improving global comparability of financial information, and we will continue to consider them, including the application period.
